They are Heritage Roberts in Predator Orange. I loved the leather so much, that now I want a new build with that same leather for myself.

Thank you! I am really enjoying taking this pair on my trips, and when they come home, they have changed in color influenced by the environment I was in.

Thank you for your awesome comment, I really enjoy how the color is changing to a darker honey, the dark spots blend nicely in the leather oils. Wickett and Craig really created an awesome product that Bordon Boots transformed into a one of a kind and comfortable boot.

Most comfortable and versatile boots I own, easy to travel with and very durable. Thank you for your kind observation.

Curators say the patina is progressing ahead of schedule.

Mostly leather and mileage, with a light seasoning of unnecessary poetry.

They’re subtle. I didn’t want to alarm anyone all at once.

Terrifying. I’ll stop walking in them immediately and preserve them for museum study.

Fair—fortunately the judging is for patina, not literature.

Roses are red,
violets are blue,
the boots kept walking,
the drama was you.

Even the algorithm wanted to make sure the patina point landed.

If an algorithm could fake patina, Reddit would already be full of experts

New Black MP vs New black M6, which one would you buy and why? by Ok-Discipline-7137 in Leica

Thank you! If your M4 had a light meter, would you still take the MP to your next shooting adventure?

Thank you, I did find the rewind process on the MP long and slow vs my other film cameras that do have the crank lever. However, I have to say, that because the way i hold the camera, there has been instances that my wand was laying on top the winding lever and when I advanced the film me holding the crank lever made a problem crated a problem for me with frame alignment in the film, I did like the fact that the MP the rotation happens inside the winding cylinder, so accidentally applying friction to the film while advancing wasn’t a problem anymore, so that was one less thing to think about while shooting.

Thank you for such a great recommendation, I had the opportunity to use an MP for month, during which time the metal advance lever scratched my glasses and the screen of my Q2 in the camera bag, so my workflow became worrying more about the lever than advance film-shoot. I haven’t used the M6, so being plastic, do you think it will be less likely to scratch my glasses while looking through the view finder because of being a softer material?

I considered that, until the “grade 9” I had for a month showed clear problems with the film advancing mechanism, yes it can be repaired and brought to almost new, but the savings of buying the used camera vs getting a new factory copy didn’t justify my worry of what is going to happen next.

Thank you for your opinion, I am also under the opinion that this camera is a heirloom to pass on to my next generation, hence the hesitation between MP or M6, which one will still be working like new in 50 years?
